Table: Marker patterns that can contribute to diagnosis or subtyping in less common cases


Additional markers that may support granulocytic maturation
Standard markers in AML generally allow assignment for granulocytic cases, other markers may be less specific
CD11b A marker of both granulocytic and monocytic maturation, this marker has previously been associated with less good outcome in a number of studies
point 2
Addtional features of monocytic differentiation
CD11c This marker is most associated with monocytic maturation in AML being fairly well corellated with CD11B, but overall probably less specific for monocytic differentiation that CD14
CD14 Primarily a marker of monocytic maturation in AML, seen most often in more differentiated forms, when present CD14 be considered a strong indicator of monocytic phenotype.
CD64 A good lineage marker for monocytic differentiation in AML, expressed in both monoblastic and monocytic forms, not fully sepicific when expressed at lower levels.
point 3
Features associated with erythroid differentiation
Most often CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR are weak or negative, although CD117 and CD36 are generally expressed. There may be some expression of platelet markers in some cases.
CD71 Frequently expressed though not fully lineage specific
CD235 A good marker of erythroid differentiation but acquired late and therefore may not be expressed
point 4
Features associated with megakaryocytic differentiation
Most often CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR are weak or negative, although CD13 and CD33 may be expressed
CD41 Platelet glycoprotein IIbIIIa
CD61 Platelet glycoprotein IIIa
CD36 Relatively non-specific (seen in erythroid and monocytic leukaemias) but often strongly expressed
